Not a problem there. Bills are paid.

Hopefully that stops after my next engine is done. he just kind of wanted his to run, so we stuck it together and threw it in. It make me want to build a 4.8 now, just to see how fast I could make it. Don't forget Zane, this was on methanol because of the 13.97 compression.

I have plenty of favorites, but I get bored with Firearms pretty quick. As a tinker, I find the car is much more interesting.
